The Roseville Pottery Company seeing a need to compete with the highly successful
lines produced by other Ohio pottery companies hired Ross Purdy to create
a new line of artware which was named Rozane. Rozane
Frederick Rhead was hired as art director in 1904. He was the genus behind such
lines as Crystalis, Fudgi, Aztec and Della Robbia. While some

the company was forced to close in 1954 .
